The New York Mets re-signed starting pitcher Sean Manaea in the early hours of Monday morning, signing him to a three-year contract worth $75 million. ESPN’s Jeff Passan got the news on social media:

The 32-year-old has been dominant in the second half of 2024, as reported by Sarah Langs of MLB.com.

2024 Sean Manaea, from July 30 to September 21:

11 departures
2.63 ERA
.155 Opp BA
.283 Opp SLG

The Manaea signing represents another big move for the active Mets, who also signed Juan Soto, Clay Holmes, Frankie Montas and Griffin Canning.

The Mets currently lack a true reliable ace in the starting rotation, but they have an interesting collection of weapons that should pair well with their potentially elite offense.

1) Manaea: About to turn 33 before the season, he went 12-6 with a 3.47 ERA overall. He has made 32 starts and is a nine-year veteran with the A’s, Padres, Giants and Mets.

2) Kodai Senga: About to turn 32, the Japanese import spent most of the season injured in 2024. He made just one regular season start, but returned to make three unspectacular appearances in the playoffs. He is 13-7 over two seasons with a 2.99 ERA.

3/4/5: Holmes, Montas, Canning/Tylor Megill: You can quibble with the order all you want here, but it looks like Holmes and Montas are locked into the rotation. Holmes, the former Yankees reliever, signed a three-year contract to get his first chance to start. Montas signed a two-year contract after spending the 2024 season with the Cincinnati Reds and Milwaukee Brewers. He was 7-11 with a 4.84 ERA.

Canning went 6-13 with a 5.19 ERA for the last-place Angels while Megill was 4-5 with a 4.04 ERA in New York.
